TOTAL LOSS
A. Prescott's House Destroyed
by Hre About Noon
v Yesterday!
SEVERAL. MEN V Lit? INJURED
! "while FIGHTING THE FIRE
I LOSS IS ABOUT '200o, PARTLY
j COVERED BY INSURANf C-THE
HOUSEHOLD GOODS SAVED.
(From Saturday Dally.)
f- The most serious Are which" has
occurred In Salem for several months,
took place yesterday morning in South
Salem at 11:15 o'clock, wth the result
I that Mr. A. Prescott's residence. No. 1
Commercial street, was partially de-
, siroyeo. it is tne nrst house north of
-A J. P. Rogers' residence, on the west
i side of Commercial street.
The fire broke out In the attic from a
I defective flue leadings from- the kitchen,
j and had been burning: some time before
lit was discovered. Mrs. D. $J Smith,
i who was in the front part of the house
i at the time, first noticed "smoke at 11:15
o'clock and hearing a noise overhead.
I started for the attic. On .opening the
attic door, the flames burst out in her
; face, and she realized that the house
; was doomed. Slamming- the door, she
hurried over to J, P. Rogers' residence
j and turned in a fire alarm. As she
i left the bouse he nrfi.'n ttio y.a.
end was aTI on fire", "and the flame was
already bursting from the roof. The
weather was very warm, am if was a
j long run. almost a mile, from the en
j gTne houHf, but the firemen responded
I with alacrity. The hose cart was out
In an Instant, and went down OB?n
r j rnerc-lal street at a furious rate. '. The
; -nglne followed about 200 yards behind,
i but it is a much heavier load, and the
horses could not go so fast. In a few
minutes the hose" cart arrived on the
m rijT- i t uniMgraiion ana ITutKing
i connection with the plug In the ten
Inch water main at the corner, turned
a stream of water pn the now roaring
Are. 'By some mistake the fire engine
Mopped on the Mill creek bridge, on
; fommercial street, and attempted to
get water fronr. the creek. After 'lear
lng up !a plank and dropping the suc
tion hoe. It was found that It would
4 not reach the water, and Chief John-
on wa compelled to order the engine
to the top of the hill, where connection
was made with the water main, and
two large streams of water turned onto
the burning building. ' making quick
work of quenching the flames.
In the meantime, as soon as the
alarm had been turned ,in. neighbors
liegan to gather, commencing to carry
out the urnlture and personal property
of the occupants, and In less time than
it takes to tell It, the front part of the
hou!e upstairs and down, was stripped
of Its furnishings. whl'A were all ear
rled out of the danger line. Mrs.
Smith says the crowd attracted, .by the
tire was all very, kind and orderly,
handling everything so carefully that
even the lamps and vases were not
broken. , She missed her gold watch,
which wa l.n one of the upstairs rooms
and thought someone had pocketed It,
but later learned that It had"been pick
ed up and left with City Recorder N. J.
Judah. Chief of Police Gibson, who
waw on the ground, swore In a spe
cial officer, ir. 8. Radclifr. to guard the
proierty until It could be removed.
The fire was difficult to fight without
endangering the llves of the firemen.
Kilt th hnvr lllr.. V.i .. .t
i'hkf Johnson ; expressed himself I as
more than pleased with the work of.
the crew. When they reached the en
gine houe their clothes were drenched
and badly torn and soiled. One of the
ladders broke while Frank Luce, Fred
Kurts and Galbreath were on It, and
they were considerably injured" by the
fall, although not seriously. No bones
were broken. Some of the ladders are
getting old and will no tN bear the strain
to whk h they are liable to be subjected
at any time.
WW Ketohum was the first gentle-1
man to reacITthe scene of the fire, and
worked very hard to save the furniture.
As soon as help arrived, he assisted In
earrylng out the piano, handling one
end himself, and in ao doing sprained
and bruised his ankle very seriously,
t He attempted to walk, but nearly
fainted wtth the excruciating pain, and
a planing carriage took him to his
home. Last night some of the swell
ing had gone down, but he Is still very
lame and sore.
Judge Geo. H, Burnett, who la al
ways happy when he can be climbing
about a burning building and assisting
In the rescue of property and lives, and
Webster Holmes, and many others,
were also early upon the scene and
gave much assistance to the work, al
though they were thorouhgly drenched.
The entire rear end of the house was
burned away and the rest of It more or
less damaged by the fire and water.
. The plaster was soaked from the walls,
the windows broken out. etc., so that,
although it can be said to be a total
iT'JLV " l hard,T worth repairing.
Mr. Preseott Mated that the damage
could not be satisfactorily repaired and
that If he rebuilt at all, he would first
tear away the old wreck, and build an
-iirriy nrw nouse. The only loss of
furniture was In the kitchen, which
could not be entered at all, after the
fire was discovered. i
: ' The loss Is estimated at about 15000,
-with some Insurance.' The house was
. Insured for S1500. and the contents for
; 11175 in the Continental Fire Insurance
Company of New York. - I
The house was about thirty-four
years old. and has been occupied by
0r. Preseott for the last twenty-nine
. years. "When he came to Salem, thirty
years ago, he moved Into the Bucking
Ham house In the same block, and yes
terday after the fire he .commenced
moving his belongings Into ths same
house again, after an absence of about
twenty-nine years.
About three-weeks ago he went to
Wlnlock. Washington, accompanied by
shls wife, where he has extenV-e lum
bering Interests, and Mr. and Mrs. D.
B. Smith were stopping !n the house
uunng nis aosence. He arrived In Sa
lem yesterday on the 11 o'clock train.
and had not yet reached home when he
leemed that It 'was In flames. Mrs,
: Prewott Pt larned of her loss on her
an H al iu iU city last night.

M'BRIDE AT THE HELiC '
; VANCOUVER, B. C. June S. Politi
cal events are moving rapidly here.
Following the dramatic sweeping away
of -old-time cobwebs by: the Conserva
tives in the Introduction of party lines
comes the retirement of Joseph Martin
from the position of leader of the Lib
eral party " That, as no other happen
ing could, clears the deck' for a straight
fight, Martin has been styled the "bo
gle man" of his party by men of his
own political faith, but by his action be
has shown hlmself"wllling to sink per
sonal ambitions and forget quarrels for
the good of his "party. ' '
The Mc Bride government has quick
ly rot down tb business anticipatory of
the general election. Captain Tatlow,
the new president of the council, has
delivered the budget speech. The com
mittee appointed,, to revise the esti
mates of the deceased ; Prior govern
ment, adopted the proposed expendi
ture in toto and added 1170.000.
The government Is being run by Pre
mier Mc Bride as chief commissioner
and Captain Tatlow as president of the
council, and will probably be so con
tinued until after the elections, when
It Is understood the elected Conserva
tive members If their: party wins
will finally decide whether McBride or
Charles Wilson shall lead the party.

GOLD IN QUANTITIES
SHORES OF STEAMBOAT LAKE
? SHOW SOME RICH
f COLORS.
I MEDFORD. Or., June 6. J. A. Whit
man and J. D. Hard are now in control
of what promises ro be the biggest pla
cer mining proposition in Southern Or
egon. The property Is located on
Steve's Fork of Steamboat Lake, and
comprises some 880 acres of mining
ground, nearly all of which" prospects
rich from "grass roots to bedrock.
Some of the prospects obtained are so
big that it Is hard to believe they were
taken from just a few pans of dirt. The
property was purchased from Messrs.
Shearer, Lewis, Armstrong and Scott,
and the new owners have already been
offered an Advance of two and a half
times the purchase price. The water
supply Is abundant, y v t ' ' ;
Whitman and Heard will put twenty
men at work at once, and expect to be
piping within forty or fifty days. The
water supply is sufficient 'to ran the
year round, except ' per Raps few
weeks in the winter, when the water
may freeze In the ditch. Later a three
mile ditch will be built to cover the
whole property. The location of the
property is such that It cannot fail to
be almost fabulously rich. The creek
heads near the summit of Grayback"
mountain, and directly opposite is the
ereek which fed the famous American
bar on the Klamath, from which thou
sands of dollars have been taken, and
between the two rises Althouae creek,
one of the richest mining districts In
Southern Oregon In early days. ; ;y
Why this property has not hereto
fore been worked Is hard to telU That
it was rich bad been known for many
years. , However, the country was bard
to get - Into and the early miners had
good prospects without having to climb
mountains almost perpendicular.
A party left Medford this morning
for the mine to commence construction
of the ditch, and more will be sent in
from time to time. Machinery has
been ordered, and win be on the ground
by the time the ditch Is finished. .

transportation, but arrived Wednesday
night and yesterday was put In posi
tion and is now running at its full ca
pacity. and is a hot rival of the merry-go-round,
with the odds In favor of the
new comer. ' It surely is a drawing
card, for it is a beauty with its elec
trie lights that travel the round with
the revolving wheel, showing off the
crowd of merry pleasure seekers that
sit comfortably in ,the ten cars. High
carnival Is being held in Dallas in all
kinds of Innocent amusements. The
vast crowd is very, orderly; no drunk
eness is seen anywhere, and not a sin
gle attempt is being made to put on
